Tier 7 on hard! OK, I'll never get this done. Maybe I should go back and try to 5* all the previous songs.

The best part about GH3 is that there are no songs like What I Like About You. That one was literally painful for me to play.

my advice to players that are trying out hard, and aren't great at it:

skip notes. learn the song, for example, 3's and 7's.

You might have a hard time hitting that whole main riff, but, you can pick one "two finger chord" to just skip, and focus on hitting 9-10 everytime. You will get no combo, and will 3* ifyou pass, but it worked for me.

Another one is Before I Forget.

In the chorus part, when you have to move up and down to hit the chords, whatever the chord is that is a single one, just skip it.

This has helped me in lots of songs.

I am currently using this strategy in Expert, on Raining Blood, and it's working pretty well.

Am I wrong or do they not sell stand alone guitars for Wii? I went to my local best buy and they said I had to buy another bundle.

I finaly found this game for wii. I beat mecdium pretty easily, but now hard is much more difficult. I spent about an hour on Story of my life. I failed Rock and ROll all night on my first try, and decided it was time to take a break.

still can't get out of the Holiday In Cambodia intro [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

I hate that section so much.... on the plus side, if you get through it 5-starring the song is pretty easy.



[/ QUOTE ]

[img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] I got out of the intro finally

[img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] I played terribly afterwards and only 3* 1.5x multiplier

battle mode is so retarded, pisses me off to no end in career mode

umm Before I Forget, Stricken and a bunch of other songs with a bunch of those alternating 3 note chords all in a row say hi. My hands are in pain after playing those.

mini brag as well- I finally beat raining blood on expert, amazingly I didn't use star power at all either, not because im so skilled, but because I couldn't manage to hit two star power sections. Now I just have to beat Lou.

Finally beat STory of My Life, whipped through Tier 2, and fudged up Bulls on Parade because one of my kids was yanking on my pants leg heh. Havent had a chance to retry it but didnt seem like too hard of a song. Full disclosure, I tried the Morello battle twice, got owned and skipped him. I hate battle mode, [censored] retarded.
